Powerful opening song on Joe Lynn Turner's JLT solo album.
It is really fun to play. It's not too hard to learn either. Once you get the
main riff (in the intro for example) you're almost done.
I think I'm correct in saying it is Al Pitrelli on rhythm guitar and
Chris Caffery (of Savatage) as guest soloist.
Chris' solos don't sound like they want to be tabbed so I haven't bothered.
I have however included pretty much every note played by Al.
Enjoy! I know I will be!

Intro:

In this riff you may prefer to play it slightly differently,
maybe on the A and D strings instead of D and G for example.
This is how I play it:
